Apparently, some Twitter users noticed raised an eyebrow on Adele's Jamaican flag bikini paired with Bantu knots - a special hairstyle traditionally work by black women.

Because of this, some Twitter users slammed the singer for cultural appropriation.

"This is what happens when you invite too many people to the cookout no more invites #Adele #Bantu," one Twitter user wrote.

"If 2020 couldn't get anymore bizarre, Adele is giving us Bantu knots and cultural appropriation that nobody asked for. This officially marks all of the top white women in pop as problematic. Hate to see it," journalist Ernest Owens added.

Another one noted: "I'm upset about Adele wearing the Bantu knots in her head. it's cultural appropriation, and it's not cute."

Meanwhile, some same to Adel's defense and suggest to leave the mother-of-one alone as she had enough criticism from her body transformation.

"Bantu knots are from my African ancestors. We're actually fine with people wearing our stuff as you can see in Nigeria weddings etc, but we aren't cool with people like Kardashian's claiming and renaming our braids. Adele isn't claiming Bantu or renaming it," one fan explained.

"This made me smile. It shows the impact my little island has on the whole world. How influential we truly are," another one added.

One fan noted: "This is cultural appreciation, not appropriation."
